Statement

The Experimental Interaction Unit (EIU) was
established by Eric Paulos to directly confront the threatening conformity and standards
of technology in science and industry. EIU rejects the current interfaces between
humans and machines, insisting on exploring new techniques and systems necessary for our
inevitable co-habitation with machines. Our research interests are not limited
solely to amicable interactions between humans and machines. Nor do we consider only
human-machine interactions, but all permutations of those interactions. As a group
of scientists, we endeavor to employ state-of-the-art techniques and technologies to
conceive, design, and construct interaction systems which will simultaneously study,
distract, and assault our future interactions with machines.
